As part of transitioning to a career in data science/AI, I'm currently enrolled in Udacity's Data Science nanodegree. As part of that, one of the projects was to pick an interesting dataset to perform some exploratory data analysis on using the R programming language. I chose to explore some MLB statistics in relation to Fanduel Scores. Thought some of you might be interested.

This analysis doesn't even come close to exploring all the available relationships, but was a fun project and I discovered some useful information to aid in building a predictive model.

Hope others enjoy it.
